Weekend Update

(My own, not the SNL one.)

The Main Distractor is visiting friends in Ohio this weekend, leaving me without anyone to chat with online or give me virtual cuddles   I hope he’s having a good time though. His friends have a darling toddler and a dog, so sounds like a fun household to visit. ^_^

My weekend may or may not include the following: a couple of hours of work to try to get some catching up done; some housework; should cook something that I can take for lunch this week, hmm; rake some leaves today maybe except oh, I missed the no-rain window, it’s just started coming down again, rats; a drive to IKEA as I think I’ve found a combination of v cheap rugs that will increase the livability of my downstairs a bit, and I want to put up some hooks in the non-closet area; and I think that’s about it. I dreamt about flank steak last night, I’ve just realized (!!) so I think there’s going to be some beef stew in my future. YUM!

Halloween last night was fun, I got a super cheap witch hat at the dollar store to wear to give out candy, and had some excellent trick-or-treaters!! there was a little toddling pumpkin girl, and a little guy dressed as Superman who had only been walking for a month, and he was just ZOOMing down the sidewalk, it was just comical. The oddest sight was the entire family who went out together; 3 or 4 kids, mom and dad, and GRANDMA all dressed up and lined up for candy to go in their grocery bags. Um, OK! I guess they all like candy and how could you say no to Grandma? My own Gram had a definite sweet tooth.

I wish the kids didn’t set off so many firecrackers, but on the other hand, it makes it easier to keep my wee black cats in the house, and safe.

Have a good weekend, everyone!
